Chapter 9: The Father and the Son
Duan Yingsi, is the second emperor of Dali, his father Duan Pingsi not only laid down the country of Dali, but also a champion of martial arts, Duan's Yiyang finger is through his hands, from a first-class martial arts, developed into the top martial arts.
Sixteen years ago, Duan Pingsi died of illness, and Duan Yingsi, who was not as young as a weak crown, became emperor. Duan Yingsi's talent is no less than that of his father, and inheriting the throne is what everyone expects, but in the same year that he ascended the throne, an incident happened that made him rebel against his relatives, and finally forced him to step down from the dragon chair and become a monk.
That year, Zhou Shizong Chai Rong died of illness and was succeeded by his seven-year-old son Chai Zongxun. Four days later, Zhao Kuangyin, the former superintendent of the palace, who was the minister of Tuogu, was in the yellow robe of Chenqiaoyi, turned his head and seized the Chai family, and drove the orphans and widows left by Chai Rong out of the Jinluan Palace.
Because Zhao Kuangyin's counterattack was too sudden, the situation was already under control before the Later Zhou Dynasty could react, and the civil and military officials of the Later Zhou Dynasty could only push the boat down the river and change the flag. Such a change of ownership was done gently and skillfully, without even shedding a drop of blood, which made people have to praise the superb means.
In the Song Dynasty, Haiqing and Heyan were clear, but Dali caused an uproar in China.
It turned out that Chai Rong and Duan Pingsi were both masterpieces of a generation, and the two had already cherished each other and became brothers when they were fighting the country. Later, after the establishment of the Later Zhou and Dali, the two made a bloody alliance, agreeing that the Chai family and the Duan family would be brothers for generations, and the two countries would never fight each other. Therefore, when the news of Zhao Kuangyin's usurpation of Zhou reached Dali, Duan Yingsi was furious, and even if he wanted to raise troops to fight against the rebels for the Chai family and take back the rivers and mountains.
As soon as his decision came out, the Dali court was in an uproar: the Zhao and Song Dynasty people were strong and strong, and the national strength was a hundred times stronger than that of Dali.
However, Duan Yingsi thought that Zhao Kuangyin had just usurped the Later Zhou Jiangshan, and the people's hearts were not stable. There must have been many courtiers loyal to Hou Zhou who dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. At this time, the banner of righteousness was raised to attack the Song Dynasty, as long as they could contact and persuade these loyal ministers of the Later Zhou Dynasty to cooperate with the outside world, they would be able to overcome the strong with the weak.
Duan Yingsi's words convinced the young Zhuang faction in the court, but for the old Cheng faction, which accounted for the main force of the court, this decision was too dangerous. If you are not careful, it will bring disaster to Dali. Just as Duan Yingsi was gearing up and preparing for war, his uncle Duan Liangsi, together with Prime Minister Dong Jialuo, launched a palace mutiny, abolished Duan Yingsi's imperial throne, and forced him to become a monk in Tianlong Temple, which was actually a disguised detention.
Duan Yingsi had two sons before he was deposed, and the eldest son, Duan Suren, was visiting relatives at the Yang clan of his mother's family, so he escaped the catastrophe. The youngest son Duan Suke was born not long ago, and his mother was a favorite concubine from a small family. Soon after the palace change, he died of fear. And Duan Suke was handed over to Tianlong Temple to raise, firstly to appease Duan Yingsi, and secondly, as a hostage, so that Duan Yingsi could not act rashly.
So Duan Suke, the prince of Dali, turned into a miscellaneous monk of Tianlong Temple. He was implicated by his father Duan Yingsi, and was disliked by the monks in Tianlong Temple, and this sentiment also affected the miscellaneous monks below. Gradually, the monk became a pitiful worm among his peers who was bullied. until he was pushed off the cliff, and then occupied by Ding Yu.
Figuring out Seng Ke's life experience, Ding Yu was even more embarrassed in his heart: Duan Yingsi was Duan Suke's father, but not his Ding Yu's father! He was a human in three lives and an orphan in two lives, and he was older than Duan Yingsi in all his lives. It's okay to let him pretend to be tender, but let him find Lao Tzu for himself for no reason, he can't do this kind of thing.
But if you don't recognize Duan Yingsi, he does occupy the body of someone else's son now, and he can't say to Duan Yingsi: "Master Duan." Your son has died, and the poor monk will temporarily borrow his body and return to Zhao after forty years. ”
Just when Ding Yu was worried, Duan Yingsi continued: "Murong Longcheng also served under Zhou Shizong back then, when your grandfather was still alive, I Dali fought with Houshu, and Murong Longcheng was ordered by Zhou Shizong to bring troops to help us defeat Houshu. When he was a father, he befriended him because of this. ”
"But your grandfather once said that this man has different ambitions, and told me to be more careful. This time he rescued me, I'm afraid the plan is not small. It's just that the father is now alone, and he can only rely on him. Once I regain the throne, I will let the heads of those chaotic ministers and thieves fall to the ground, so as to relieve the hatred in my heart!"
"Sukwu'er, your brother Su Ren died of illness two years ago, leaving only a young son, who is still in infancy. You are already my only concubine, and when I sit on the throne, I will immediately make you the crown prince. The Father will compensate you tenfold or a hundredfold for all the sufferings you have suffered all these years!"
Seeing Duan Yingsi looking at him with blazing eyes, Ding Yu knew that he couldn't be confused, he sighed secretly and said, "I'm sorry, Master Duan." The little monk has been a monk since he was a child, and he only knows that he has a teacher and a fellow teacher, and he has never thought about who his parents are. Now the little monk just wants to be a monk, but he doesn't want to be the prince of Dali. ”
"You...... What are you talking about?" Duan Yingsi couldn't believe his ears - Gangchang ethics is not only respected by the Han people, but also the center of all social morality in Dali, and not recognizing his biological father is the greatest disobedience. At that time, the crime of disobedience was more serious than raising a flag to rebel, if Ding Yu's words were spread, I was afraid that he would casually walk around the street, even if he was not stoned to death by rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves, he would bring back a body of saliva and thick phlegm.
Duan Yingsi settled down and asked, "Don't you believe what I said?" Look at the crook of your elbow, there is a red mole there, and at the root of your ear, there is a pale red birthmark the size of a fingernail, if you still don't believe it, your father is willing to confess your blood with you." ”
"No need," Ding Yu shook his head and said, "Master Duan, I believe in your words, I just can't accept this identity, I really just want to be a monk." ”
"Disobedient!" Duan Yingsi pointed at Ding Yu's forehead and said angrily: "You dare to say it again!"
Ding Yu could feel Duan Yingsi's killing intent, and he knew that if he didn't deal with it well, the index finger on his forehead might penetrate from his eyebrows and penetrate into his brain in the next moment. But for him, it is better for this body to be destroyed and the soul to be in the dark cavern for forty years, than to recognize a stranger as a father.
Ding Yu raised his head, calmly looked at Duan Yingsi, and said, "I just want to be a monk!"
Duan Yingsi's heart was both painful and angry, and the strength of his fingertips was almost bursting, but when he saw Ding Yu (Duan Suke)'s stubborn and miserable expression, the appearance of Duan Suke's mother appeared in his heart, and he thought of the concubine he loved deeply, but because he was so complacent back then, he ignored all kinds of signs that he should have been able to see, and finally died depressed, and he couldn't even see the last side when he died. And his own son became a monk, it is not his own fault.
Thinking of this, Duan Yingsi felt disheartened while being heartbroken. He retracted his fingers and said weakly: "Go, go and be your monk, I Duan Yingsi only gave birth to a son." ”
Ding Yu breathed a sigh of relief, bowed together, and said, "Master Duan cherishes, and the little monk retires." Then he turned to leave, and soon disappeared into the twilight, leaving Duan Yingsi standing alone in place. (To be continued.) )
